Hi, I am a designer and UX director

I think that an empathy-led approach to creating great products is also the key to building world-class teams

EXPERTISE

I am comfortable navigating the ambiguity of product definition through discovery research and design planning that ensures we are building the right thing. I can also sweat the details of interaction design and usability testing to ensure we are building it right.

INTERACTION DESIGN

wireframes · interactive prototypes · visual comps · style guides · user stories
